Hello i want to assign gridview row value to textbox.

What I have tried:

Here using the row index i am assign the textbox like this

for (int i = 0; i < gridview1.Rows.Count; i++)
                {
                    txtmytext.text = gridview1.Rows[i].Cells[1].Text;
                }

no any issue with this but if i added any extra column then the column index changed so i want to assign the textbox using the header text
something like this

(int i = 0; i < gridview1.Rows.Count; i++)
                {
                    txtmytext.text = gridview1.Rows[i].Headertext["MyColumn"].Text;
                }

try this

string columnName = "YourColumnName";
            int index = 0;
            for (int i = 0; i < GridView1.Columns.Count; i++)
            {
                if (GridView1.Columns[i].HeaderText == columnName)
                { index = i; break; }

            }
            txtmytext.text = GridView1.Rows[i].Cells[index].Text;

There is no pointing of iterating the rows of the gridview to assign the value to the textbox, however it will assign the last index value to it. Please correct it
